Lighting tonight’s #candleforcare thinking of all across Scotland who are struggling to get #care and support packages in their own home or #carehome and all #unpaid carers taking on increased roles in this #carecrisis. It’s time to #careaboutcare

For the vast majority of young people, being cared for in a mental health unit designed for their age group, not for adults, should be the norm.

I’d like to read it Liz, but I don’t subscribe 😢 - there are times when remote prescribing is a necessity for us, the alternative is the person gets no pharmacological intervention, even when that is required (however, it should be a first line choice, it should only be by necessity)

Something’s wrong with the pics - when I’m reading it’s when I get some of my best snoozes 😂

Very well done to #Lesley and her team at The Erskine Home: following an Care Inspectorate unannounced inspection they received grade 5 (very good) for all five Key Questions of the Quality Framework #leadership #carehomeexcellence

As you know we had your Mobile Skills Unit with us last week @csmen.bsky.social over 200 social care staff during the five days, massively positive feedback re the environment, the trainers and the all round sense of being valued getting access to this resource 👏

I wanted my first post on here to be erudite and enlightening, something all nurses could relate to! But we all have to face our disappointments 🤷🏼‍♂️
